Why Choose the Mersen 83230135 Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen 83230135 is a compact and high-performance Type 2+3 surge protection device (SPD) designed to protect low-voltage electrical installations from transient overvoltages caused by lightning activity and electrical switching events. Part of the Mersen Surge-Trap® Pluggable STPT23 LF Series, it provides dependable surge protection for industrial, commercial and OEM electrical systems.
This 2-pole pluggable SPD is designed for 230 V AC single-phase TNS systems using a 2+0 configuration. It features leakage current free (LF) technology and integrated remote indication, making it suitable for installations where Power Line Communication compatibility and external status monitoring are important.
With a 20 kA maximum discharge current (Imax), 10 kA nominal discharge current (In) and a 275 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc), the Mersen 83230135 is ideal for protecting control panels, PLCs, power supplies, instrumentation, automation equipment and sensitive electrical loads.
